You may be surprised to learn that many companies in our industry are not fully licensed to perform the services they advertise. This can lead to dramatic interruptions in your travel itinerary, especially when crossing international and state borders. Even using the Interstate highway systems with an unregistered vehicle or company could lead to a cancelled or delayed trip.

Airporter Shuttle / Bellair Charters is fully licensed and registered with the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission and the Federal Department of Transportation. We're also approved by the Department of Defense to provide service to and from military bases for military and civilian personnel.

Bellair Charters and Airporter Shuttle's trained office staff, experienced mechanics, and professional drivers make our service the most reliable in our area.

We are always prepared to handle an emergency situation. We have a 24-hour dispatch center, 24-hour on-call mechanics and a complete network of support services that will get you back on the road as quickly as possible.

As part of our commitment to safety, our drivers continually undergo safety courses as part of their ongoing training.
